More quotes by Debbie Reynolds
I've always had my guard. I have my cook and my guard. I want to eat, and I want to live.
Debbie Reynolds
Weight has never been a problem with me because when you dance, it just stays off.
Debbie Reynolds
Travel is hard, but entertaining is joy.
Debbie Reynolds
I think one of my favourite films is 'Dark Victory' with Bette Davis. Why? She was so wonderful in that film. And maybe I just want a good cry once in a while without having to go through a divorce.
Debbie Reynolds
You probably only know what you've read [about Marilyn Monroe].You didn't know her. The people who talk about her didn't know her either.
Debbie Reynolds
Years ago nudity was not done in the United States. But during that late 1950s era in Vegas it began at the Tropicana, and spread to the other venues. Now the showgirls are going away again and Cirque du Soleil, the magic acts and the animal acts reign in Las Vegas. But I don't think you'll completely lose the boobie shows.
Debbie Reynolds
I'm very strict with myself. I'm an Aries and sort of a challenge to myself.
Debbie Reynolds
I think the press does, too it's just the few crazies and paparazzi that give them a bad name. Real writers write good things. My daughter's a writer, and she's a quality writer.
Debbie Reynolds
Near the end, she [Marilyn Monroe] was badly treated by Fox Studios, during the 'Let's Make Love' film shoot in 1960, they threw her off the set because she had a cold.
Debbie Reynolds
I just keep traveling and doing live shows.
Debbie Reynolds
I've always had life threats, and they've always been for real.
Debbie Reynolds
If you're a dancer, study singing. You have to do everything and do it well. You have to study acting. You have to study all of it. You have to find workshops, get out on the stage...and fail.
Debbie Reynolds
I wanted to be as comfortable in that environment as she was. I moved around those areas in character.
Debbie Reynolds
As you train and as you develop your talents, you do get better, hopefully, or you get out of the business.
Debbie Reynolds
Marilyn Monroe was taken advantage of by most of the men that knew her, including Frank Sinatra and Joe DiMaggio, whom I also knew very well.
Debbie Reynolds
Every performer should learn a little bit of everything. Most performers today only play the guitar.
Debbie Reynolds
I don't give parties, and I'm not in that social scene. I couldn't care less.
Debbie Reynolds
When I was doing theater in the 1950's, 60's and 70's we weren't allowed to film any of the shows that I did, it was against union rules. It was a stupid law, because so much is lost. We now have no record of these famous stage plays, so it turned out to be very narrow-minded thinking.
Debbie Reynolds
I think you should control yourself a little bit, so you can walk, and when you die, you can walk to your own funeral.
Debbie Reynolds
I loved going to films, but as far as a movie buff, when I came into the movies at 16, life changed a little bit for me, from an onlooker to a person that lived within the industry. So now I would call myself a different sort of fan.
